15: Chaos Tree Seedling

【Option 4: Agree to Limitless Sage and the others' request, invite them to the Sacred Tomb, and then return to the Ancient Desolate Dao Domain together, obtaining the innate supreme treasure: chaos tree sapling!】

“What?! It’s actually the sapling of the innate supreme treasure, the chaos tree?!”

Lin Xiao had originally planned to let Limitless Sage and the others return to the Ancient Desolate Dao Domain first, and then he would go to the Sacred Tomb before returning.

But now... Lin Xiao looked at the option given by the System and couldn't help but hesitate, feeling a little tempted.

The chaos tree, also known as the Great Dao Treasure Tree.

In the Myriad Heavens and Ten Thousand Realms, it has been said since ancient times that the Three Thousand Great Dao originated from Chaos.

The opening of heaven and earth, the formation of Chaos, and the birth of the great tree refer to the chaos tree.

According to legend, the chaos tree already existed when heaven and earth first opened.

It was born with chaos loam as its foundation and grew with the Three Thousand Great Dao as its nourishment. It was a rare and ancient divine tree.

It is said that each of its branches carried a Great Dao, and each leaf was inscribed with a supreme treasure technique.

In the era when heaven and earth first opened, it attracted countless beings who flocked to it, and the chaos tree was naturally destroyed in the river of history.

Of course, this was only a legend Lin Xiao had heard.

Because, throughout the history of the Ancient Desolate Dao Domain, no one had ever discovered traces of the chaos tree.

Only a few times had clues about the chaos tree appeared, and they were all about remnants of the chaos tree, such as Chaos Tree Branches or chaos tree Leaves.

But even if it was just a chaos tree leaf or branch, each time it appeared, it inevitably meant mountains of corpses, seas of blood, and countless casualties.

Because these things were simply too precious; once they appeared, it meant the birth of a peerless powerhouse.

Even the Lin Clan, which Lin Xiao belonged to, was, in the end, a beneficiary of the chaos tree.

His Lin Clan's founding Old Ancestor, in the distant ancient era, broke through to the Saint Lord Realm because he obtained a chaos tree branch, thereby establishing the eternally flourishing Lin Clan... “Fellow Daoist Lin Xiao, what's wrong? Do you still have something unfinished in this Qingyun Realm?” Limitless Sage asked when he saw Lin Xiao didn't respond.

Lin Xiao looked at Limitless Sage and the others, compelled by his desire for the chaos tree sapling.

He spoke to them, “Senior, it’s like this: Junior indeed has some unfinished business in this Qingyun Realm.”

“So I’d like to invite you all to accompany me to handle this matter. Once it’s done, we’ll immediately set off back to the Ancient Desolate Dao Domain.”

“What is it? Tell us. If we can help, these old bones of ours will certainly lend a hand.”

Before Limitless Sage could speak, Daoist Luo Feng on the side interjected.

“That’s right, Fellow Daoist Lin Xiao, just say what it is. If we can help, we will certainly do our utmost,” True Person Da Feng also chimed in.

Hearing this, Lin Xiao then took out the map recording the Golden Buddha Great Sage’s tomb and handed it to Limitless Sage.

Limitless Sage took the map, glanced at it casually, and his expression suddenly changed drastically.

The other three took the map from Limitless Sage’s hand, and after a few glances, their expressions also became somewhat strange.

“Seniors, what’s wrong? Is there a problem with this map?”

Looking at the suddenly changing expressions of the several people, Lin Xiao couldn't help but ask curiously.

However, Limitless Sage and the other three did not answer, but instead looked at the map, discussing in low voices with faces full of disbelief.

“I never thought, this is actually the tomb map of that old fellow Golden Buddha, Heaven is truly helping me.”

“This old fellow, I really don't know whether to say he's lucky or unlucky, sigh~”

“Indeed, you say he's lucky, in that chaotic era, he actually became a Great Saint. You say he's unlucky, he, a dignified Great Saint, actually died...”

“Amitabha, Fellow Daoist Golden Buddha is truly broad-minded. In the past, Little Monk invited him to be a guest at the Holy Land, but he never came. I never expected that after his death, he would bury himself beneath the ruins of my Qingyun Holy Land.”

“Cold Mountain, don't talk about such things. You might have forgotten what he did before, but I still remember. He treated us like that when he was alive, so now that he's dead, hehe, let's go dig up his tomb.”

“Hahaha, it’s settled then. Luo Feng, Cold Mountain, are you going? If you’re not, then Da Feng and I will accompany Fellow Daoist Lin Xiao.”

“Of course I’m going! How can I miss out on such a good thing? Cold Mountain, are you going?”

“Amitabha, what a sin, what a sin. You all go, Little Monk will stay here to accompany Fellow Daoist Lin Yi.”

“Alright then, just the three of us will accompany Fellow Daoist Lin Xiao.”

The four kept muttering there, leaving Lin Xiao completely bewildered.

Lin Xiao: “_( :з」∠)_”

What is going on? Do these Seniors know the Golden Buddha Great Sage?

But the Seniors are clearly only in the Half-Saint Realm, how could they possibly know a Great Saint Realm powerhouse? Lin Xiao thought, somewhat puzzled.

“Fellow Daoist Lin Xiao, when shall we depart?” Limitless Sage’s voice rang out.

“Ah?” Lin Xiao was stunned.

“Didn’t you say you wanted to go to this Golden Buddha Great Sage’s tomb? The three of us will go with you. Cold Mountain doesn’t want to go, so let him stay and accompany Fellow Daoist Lin Yi.”

“What?! You agreed?!” Lin Xiao almost jumped for joy when he saw them agree.

【Ding, congratulations Host for obtaining the innate supreme treasure: chaos tree sapling. It has been automatically planted in your Dantian!】

As the System's voice fell, Lin Xiao used his inner vision to look inside his body.

Sure enough, he saw a small sapling, emitting faint Chaos Qi and the power of the Great Dao, planted in his Dantian, radiating endless divine light.

Lin Xiao could clearly feel that with the planting of the chaos tree sapling,

The power generated by the Great Heavenly Eye Technique he had cultivated since childhood, and the power generated by the Great Devouring Technique obtained as a System reward,

The two were merging together in an extremely profound state, clinging to the tiny, tender bud that had just sprouted from the chaos tree sapling.

At this instant, Lin Xiao’s cultivation also rose from Life and Death Realm Level 5 to Life and Death Realm Level 6.

The four people beside him watched, stunned.

With a “Holy crap!”, their dignified demeanor instantly vanished without a trace.

“Fellow Daoist Lin Xiao, what did you do? You actually broke through just like that!” Limitless Sage said.

Of course, Lin Xiao couldn't reveal the matter of the chaos tree sapling.

So he casually made up an excuse, “I don’t know either. I just suddenly remembered the Heaven Imprisoning Finger you taught me, Senior, and then I broke through.”

“Strange, strange, is this the power of a Dao Heart owner? Naturally inclined to the Dao, comprehending the Dao at the drop of a hat, breaking through at the drop of a hat. This is terrifying!”

Seeing this scene, Daoist Luo Feng on the side said.

“Benefactor Lin Xiao is truly worthy of being a descendant of the Saint Monarch, truly benevolent!” Monk Cold Mountain smiled slightly at Lin Xiao.

“Never mind all that, let’s go. The sooner we clear out the Sacred Tomb, the sooner we can return to the Dao Domain.”

Fearing that the others would continue to press him, Lin Xiao quickly changed the subject.

“Indeed, no time to lose. Let’s head to Golden Buddha Mountain first. I can’t wait to see the Saint Monarch again,” True Person Da Feng said with a smile.
